Placed my order for 6 today!
Not the first time and certainly won't be the last. I also hope shipping winds up being a little cheaper than your website calculated.
Either way, still a good deal for the light-saber sticks I love
Trying to make the super light ones fashionable here in Meridies. Shouldn't be too hard...

Packed them up this evening.
Just so folks know, I am starting to get low (finally!) on these. I don't think they'll last the rest of the month.

And, I'm out of the skinny shaved sticks. So I ended to Coupon code.
Your Highness, I've emailed you an individual coupon code to make up for the shipping difference. Still tweaking in some of the shipping settings. Most were good, I've had 4 or 5 that were like 40% to high though. Weird.

Master Eirik, I received my sticks today. Thank you for the coupon code to make up for the shipping, as I will definitely be shopping at your store again.

A little before. I ran out of undersized 1.25". I'm actually getting low in general on shaved until Gulf Wars when I get a large shipment.

As a shave rattan user, let me give you my input.
1: Its lighter, and has more whip to it, should you use it as a sword. I find this useful in tourneys and keep my thuggier sticks for melee.
2: Weapon hafts and spears. It looks more like wood and less like, well, rattan. You can stain it, carve it etc, and no one would be able to tell.
3: Pells are always harder on our batons than hitting anyone anywhere. The have no flex or resistance like hitting a person, and all the impact goes back into the sword and your arm. Though my 4"x4" pell has three layers of 1/4" hemp rope wrapping it, and I don't notice it being too hard on my skinned rattan batons.

It works for some guys, some guys blow up regular rattan once a month. Individual Mileage varies wildly.
